The area of a rectangle is 42 ft squared, and the length of the rectangle is 5 ft more than twice the width. Find the dimensions

stira [4]

Answer:

<h3>Length = 12 ft</h3>

Width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of rectangle = $42 \: {ft}^{2}$

Width = X

Length = 2x + 5

Now,

$x(2x + 5) = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x - 42 = 0$

$2 {x}^{2} + 12x - 7x - 42 = 0$

$2x(x + 6) - 7(x + 6) = 0$

$(2x - 7)(x + 6) = 0$

Either

$2x - 7 = 0$

$2x = 0 + 7$

$2x = 7$

$x = \frac{7}{2}$

Or,

$x + 6 = 0$

$x = 0 - 6$

$x = - 6$

Negative value can't be taken.

So, width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Again,

Finding the value of length,

Length = $2x + 5$

$2 \times \frac{7}{2} + 5$

$7 + 5$

$12$

Length = 12 ft

What is the solution of 9x-8=34x-12

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer: x = 2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

9x-8=34x-12

Add 12 on both sides and you get

9x+4=34x

Subtract 9x from both sides and you get

4=26x

Divide 26 from both sides to get

X= 4/26

Maria is installing gutters on her rectangular shed that measures 10 ft by 9 ft she has 23 ft of gutter already and need to purc

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate the perimeter of the rectangular shed to know how much 5 feet gutter is needed.

The perimeter of the shed is p = 2(l + b) where l = 10ft and b = 9 ft

p = 2(10 + 9) = 2(19) = 38 ft

Now, the perimeter of the shed also equal 23 ft of gutter already installed plus 5x ft gutter where x = number of gutters.

So 23 + 5x = 38

collecting like terms, we have

5x = 38 - 23

5x = 15

dividing through by 5 we have

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 15/5

x = 3

So, Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.

Xelga [282]

Given:

The equation is

$\dfrac{3}{2}+b=\dfrac{7}{4}$

To find:

The value of b.

Solution:

We have,

$\dfrac{3}{2}+b=\dfrac{7}{4}$

Subtracting both sides by $\dfrac{3}{2}$ , we get

$b=\dfrac{7}{4}-\dfrac{3}{2}$

$b=\dfrac{7-2(3)}{4}$

$b=\dfrac{7-6}{4}$

$b=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Therefore, the value of b is $\dfrac{1}{4}$ .

Sophia has $91,000 in a savings account that earns 7% annually. The interest is not compounded. To the nearest cent, how much wi

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

$95777.5

Step-by-step explanation:

change 7% to decimal = .07

91,000 * .07 = 5370 (annual interest)

5370 / 12 = 530.83 (monthly interest)

530.83 * 9 = 4777.5 (9 months interest)

91,000 + 4777.5 = 95777.5 (initial + 9 months interest)
